Man, that seat post on the straight bar looks like it lives in that tube! Is it stuck? Great set! Had fun stalking you on instagram tonight too! HA :lol:
 
Not a DX, it's a straight bar. I'd say the blue one is a Deluxe Hornet, the earlier balloon version. The black one could be about anything. The springer is pre '55. Are the truss rods 1/2" or 3/8"? The 3/8" rods would put it closer to the late 40's. Gary
